20 June. Entry free. Further information
- The Glasgow School of Art Shop stocks
contemporary design products from students, staff and celebrated alumni, as
well as commissioning award winning ranges inspired by the heritage of the

two Textile Design Graduates from The Glasgow School of Art Alexandra Bland

then embellished with bespoke embroidery and pom-poms before being turned into
home ware and accessories, creating something extra special, by not only
producing visually interesting, but tangible and textured products
